POSTED: 3:54 pm EDT August 13, 2008

(Sports Network) - The Atlanta Hawks signed free agent guard Ronald "Flip" Murray on Wednesday. Per team policy, terms were not disclosed.

The 29-year-old split his time between the Detroit Pistons and the Indiana Pacers last season. He was released after averaging 7.5 points and 3.4 assists in 19 games for Detroit, and, after Indiana signed him on March 1, he logged averages of 11 points and 3.5 assists in 23 games for the Pacers.

"By signing Flip, it provides us with another experienced player who has the ability to play multiple positions for us," said Hawks general manager Rick Sund. "Because of his versatility, he will be a valuable asset for us as a reserve, and we look forward to the contributions he'll bring this season."

The six-year veteran has career marks of 9.3 points and 2.4 assists per game with the Milwaukee Bucks, Seattle SuperSonics, Cleveland Cavaliers, Pistons and Pacers.

The NCAA Division II Player of the Year during his senior season at Shaw University, Murray was selected in the second round of the 2002 draft by the Bucks.
